How does probation work?

Probation is when a court puts a defendant on a series of programs and punishments instead of sending that defendant to prison. The defendant is regularly monitored by the probation department and has to comply with a long list of conditions – usually things like drug and alcohol testing, having a stable job, doing community service, not committing any crimes, reporting to the probation department at least once a month, and whatever else the court feels like is necessary based on the crime and defendant. There are two types of probation in Texas, regular probation and deferred adjudication.
